The graphemes -rta and -rbha are indeed subject to confusion in the Śāradā script.
A good example would be Srikanth Kaul's edition (1966) of Śrīvara's Zayna-Taraṅgiṇī (2.209), where he made an - actually unnecessary - "emendation" (bhū-garbha : bhū-garta), despite the uniform reading "bhū-garbha" of all MSS:

mañjūṣikāntarān nītvā taṃ paṭaikāvṛtaṃ śavam |

pituḥ pādatale tatra bhūgartābhyantare ’kṣipat || 209 ||

(Kaul's comment on pāda d:) "MSS and CB bhūgarbhā° (mislec. for Śār. rtā)bhya°"

It is suggested to restore bhūgarbha- as uniformly transmitted:
"He took his body, covered by a single shroud, out of the coffin and laid him down there in the womb of the earth at the feet of his father [Zayn]".

Is it possible to read the name as narayanagarbha? A Google search will give you references for this scholar.
